Pleased as punch, but focused as ever – let’s hear from Mark, Chief of the Mobile and Web Tribe, for the story on our new iMindMap for Android Apps…
We have had a lot of enthusiastic users asking us for an Android version of iMindMap, so I am very happy to announce that iMindMap for Android is out now! Download the apps today and make sure you post your reviews.
The new apps for tablet and phone bring some great features, previously only available to desktop and iOS users, such as:
Freehand Branches and Icons
Simple map organisation and management
Gallery and camera access
SmartLayout and Clean Up to keep your maps tidy
MultiMaps for multiple topics in one workspace
A staff favourite and completely addictive – our new Sketch Tool
Mind Mappers with iMindMap Freedom will have full integration with ThinkBuzan Cloud, allowing you to work on your maps on any compatible device or through the ThinkBuzan Cloud website at www.thinkbuzancloud.com. One Freedom subscription covers all iMindMap apps.
My team will be working hard to regularly bring new features and languages, so if you have any ideas for things you would like to see, let us know by posting and voting up ideas in our Feedback Forum.
I was delighted to receive your e-mail with the announcement of the android-version.
But: there’s a lot of advertising in this app, and when you use it on an android-phone, there’s not much space anyway….
And as a iMind-Map-User I have expected to receive an add-free version…
Perhaps still possible?
Hi Katherina,
There are ads in the free app, however, if you subscribe to the iMindMap Freedom package there are no ads at all.
Quick question from a colleague – I have installed the newly released iMindMap for Android on my Samsung Galaxy Smartphone. One challenge though – I am unable to delete a branch from the mind map. Please advise how one deletes a branch. I’m sure it is so simple, I’ll kick myself when given the solution.
Hi Jennifer,
You simply need to tap the branch so it is selected, then tap it again to bring up the menu options and select ‘Delete’. Any problems, let us know.
I’m a desktop user, and I lack presentation functionality!
Furthermore, Android app is not being able to correctly show big mindmaps. Big branches don’t appear completely, they are hid out of workspace.
Hi Jefferson,
Can you please send the map(s) you are experiencing problems with to customersupport@thinkbuzan.com so our Technical Team can take a look?
Presentation functionality is currently only available on the iPhone and iPad apps as Android involves a large variety of devices with different output methods. We are exploring this though and will keep you updated.
It’d be cool if you could use the android app as a remote for the desktop software. I have a Nexus 7 and it would be perfect if I could connect my laptop to a projector and be free to walk around with my tablet.
I can not open a map from SD from PC copy to tablet. pls help me sovle it
Hi Tuannhan,
If you send an email to customersupport@thinkbuzan.com with your iMindMap username and details of the issue you are having, one of our Technical Support Team will be able to help. Please be aware that iMindMap desktop software will not work on mobiles or tablets – we have mobile apps that you can download for this here: http://www.thinkbuzan.com/products/imindmap/freedom#iphone-ipad
